One Day We'll All Have A Living Room Lamborghini

"I want a nine-car garage and be able to enjoy viewing one of them in the living room." And so it came to pass, and the people rejoiced. I love it when rich people go bonkers, don't you?

Honestly, if I had a sweet Lamborghini I'd want to stare at it from my couch, too. This Tokyo (naturally) home was gamely designed by Takuya Tsuchida, who received the instruction above from a client with very particular taste.

Note that the car is on a platform that raises and lowers as you please, placing either in your home or below it. Remember, it's not crazy: it's eccentric. And totally, unbelievably badass. [What We Do Is Secret via Today and Tomorrow]

I was actually drawing up plans for a house I thought about buying (was more of an office/ semi warehouse in Melbourne) where the garage would be incorperated into the lounge. Didn't have hydrolics etc, but similar concept.

If you have a nice vehical (or 9) to show off I don't see any reason not to have it as a centre peice in your house.

Consider the humble light globe. It hides in your ceiling, turning electricity into light, but little do you know how inefficiently it's doing that. Halogen light bulbs aren't great, but traditional incandescents are downright terrible. Ikea says that the average Aussie household could save nearly $150 a year by switching its lighting to LEDs.
